My whiny players have been playing 12th level characters and didn't want to start out at 1st level as they felt they could get killed too easily, so I have allowed them to start at 2nd level, except the goliath who is ECL+1. They are not a particularly nice group of people and are likely to die trying to save themselves rather than help their fellow party members. They will be joined next session by an elven necromancer - although still trying to work out how they will meet up with him. Headed east from the first room, slaughtered the orcs in A2 for no real reason beyond laughing at them - the halfling is a psycho and the fighter/rogue a bit trigger happy. Then they ran into the first of the darkmantles (A8 I think) and if I hadn't been a little generous on grapple checks it would have killed the goliath. This was followed by a rat swarm which nibbled on the other three party members before they killed it with alchemist's fire and a flask of acid. Made their way to Orgoth's room, where they decided to rest up. A couple of darkmantles tried to pay a visit during the night but a bit of fancy spearwork took them out of the picture.
